Citadel on the shore
The "Citadel" ran aground on the shores of the
Guadalquivir River due to intense fog in the early hours
of Jan 12, 2014.
The ship was underway from Porsgrunn to Seville and got stuck
five miles from Trebujena (Cádiz ). The ship got stuck just
10 meters from the shore near the mouth of the River Guadalquivir
in Sanlúcar de Barrameda.
The Seville harbor tugs have been working unsuccessfully on
Jan 13 morning to get the ship which was loaded with a cargo
of 5300 tons fertilizer off the ground.
The salvage company Svitzer was contracted to refloat the ship
now which was to take place on Jan 18 on the earliest,
taking advantage of the high tide , with a chartered tug.
Before, some dredging was to be carried out. [Vesseltracker.com]
